Hello I run a vegetable outlet and use a scale for weighing products. My product codes are 3 digits long. How should I set up the barcode profile in SalesPlay POS so that it works correctly with weight-embedded barcodes?

    Hi 👋 Thanks for your question and this is a good one. Since you're using 3-digit product codes and a scale that prints weight-embedded barcodes, you'll need to configure a custom barcode profile in SalesPlay POS using the PLU (Price Look-Up code) setting.

    Hi 👋

    Thanks for your question and this is a good one.

    Since you’re using 3-digit product codes and a scale that prints weight-embedded barcodes, you’ll need to configure a custom barcode profile in SalesPlay POS using the PLU (Price Look-Up code) setting.

    Here’s how to set it up:

    1. Go to Settings > Barcode Profile in your SalesPlay POS backend.

    2. Click on “Add New” to create a custom barcode profile (default formats like EAN-13 can’t be edited).

    3. In the new profile, set the “Number of Digits for PLU” to 2.

      • This tells the POS to treat the first 3 digits after the prefix as the product code.

      • Example: If your barcode is 2101452500006 → 145 will be recognized as the product code.

    4. Save and apply the new barcode profile.

    Why set PLU as 2?

    Because your product codes are 3 digits, setting PLU to 2 helps the system extract and match the correct code. For 3-digit codes:

    • ✅ Set PLU = 2

    • For 4-digit codes → PLU = 1

    • For 5-digit or longer codes → PLU = 0

    More info: How to Add Weight-Embedded Barcodes

    Let me know if you need help creating the barcode format itself or testing it with your scale!

    Hello Amir

    Yes, there is a limitation on how far back receipts are displayed in the POS App. The app retains receipts for the past 30 days only.

    However, all receipts are permanently stored in the BackOffice system, so you can still access older records there.

    Since the transaction from May 22 is beyond the 30-day limit on the app, it will not appear under Past Receipts in the POS App. As an alternative, you can delete the original receipt via the BackOffice, then issue a new receipt with today’s date and process the refund accordingly. Please note that backdating is not possible—this is just a workaround we suggest for handling such cases.
